 PluggableAuthService changelog
 ==============================
 
-PluggableAuthService 1.6 (unreleased)
+PluggableAuthService 1.6 (2008-08-05)
 -------------------------------------
 
 - Fixed another deprecation for manage_afterAdd occurring when used
@@ -143,287 +143,3 @@
 - Removed some BBB code for Zope versions < 2.8, which is not needed 
   since we require Zope > 2.8.5 nowadays.
 
-
-PluggableAuthService 1.4 (2006-08-28)
--------------------------------------
-
-- Extended the DomainAuthHelper to function as its own extraction
-  plugin, to allow for the case that another extractor is registered,
-  but does not return any credentials.
-  (http://www.zope.org/Collectors/PAS/46)
-
-- Re-worded parts of the README so they don't point to specific or 
-  non-existing files (http://www.zope.org/Collectors/PAS/6 and
-  http://www.zope.org/Collectors/PAS/47)
-
-
-PluggableAuthService 1.4-beta (2006-08-07)
-------------------------------------------
-
-- Created a "Configured PAS" entry in the ZMI add list, which
-  allows creating a PAS using base and extension GenericSetup profiles
-  registered for IPluggableAuthService.  This entry should eventually
-  replace the "stock" PAS entry (assuming that we make GenericSetup
-  a "hard" dependency).
-
-- Added an "empty" GenericSetup profile, which creates a PAS containing
-  only a plugin registry and a setup tool.
-
-- Repaired the "simple" GenericSetup profile to be useful, rather than
-  catastrophic, to apply:  it now creates and registers a set of
-  ZODB-based user / group / role plugins, along with a basic auth
-  helper.
-
-- ZODBUserManager: Extend the "notional IZODBUserManager interface"
-  with the left-out updateUser facility and a corresponding
-  manage_updateUser method for ZMI use. Removed any responsibility
-  for updating a user's login from the updateUserPassword and
-  manage_updateUserPassword methods. This fixes the breakage
-  described in the collector issue below, and makes the ZMI view
-  for updating users work in a sane way.
-  (http://www.zope.org/Collectors/PAS/42)
-
-- CookieAuthHelper: If expireCookie was called and extractCredentials
-  was hit in the same request, the CookieAuthHelper would throw an
-  exception (http://www.zope.org/Collectors/PAS/43)
-
-- Added a DEPENDENCIES.txt. (http://www.zope.org/Collectors/PAS/44)
-
-
-PluggableAuthService 1.3 (2006-06-09)
--------------------------------------
-
-- No changes from version 1.3-beta
-
-
-PluggableAuthService 1.3-beta (2006-06-03)
-------------------------------------------
-
-- Modify CookieAuthHelper to prefer __ac form variables to the cookie
-  when extracting credentials.
-  (https://dev.plone.org/plone/ticket/5355)
-
-
-PluggableAuthService 1.2 (2006-05-14)
--------------------------------------
-
-- Fix manage_zmi_logout which stopped working correctly as soon as the
-  PluggableAuthService product code was installed by correcting the
-  monkeypatch for it in __init__.py.
-  (http://www.zope.org/Collectors/PAS/12)
-
-- Add missing interface for IPropertiedUser and tests
-  (http://www.zope.org/Collectors/PAS/16)
-
-- Removed STX links from README.txt which do nothing but return 
-  404s when clicked from the README on zope.org.
-  (http://www.zope.org/Collectors/PAS/6)
-
-- Fixing up inconsistent searching in the listAvailablePrincipals
-  method of the ZODBRoleManager and ZODBGroupManager plugins. Now both
-  constrain searches by ID.
-  (http://www.zope.org/Collectors/PAS/11)
-
-- Convert from using zLOG to using the Python logging module.
-  (http://www.zope.org/Collectors/PAS/14)
-
-
-PluggableAuthService 1.2-beta (2006-02-25)
-------------------------------------------
-
-- Added suppport for exporting / importing a PAS and its content via
-  the GenericSetup file export framework.
-
-- Made ZODBRoleManager plugin check grants to the principal's groups,
-  as well as those made to the principal directly.
-
-- Added two new interfaces, IChallengeProtocolChooser and
-  IRequestTypeSniffer. Those are used to select the 'authorization
-  protocol' or 'challenger protocol' to be used for challenging
-  according to the incoming request type.
-
-- Repaired warings appearing in Zope 2.8.5 due to a couple typos
-  in security declarations.
-
-- Repaired DeprecationWarnings due to use of Zope2 interface verification.
-
-- Repaired unit test breakage (unittest.TestCase instances have
-  'failUnless'/'failIf', rather than 'assertTrue'/'assertFalse').
-
-- Fixed a couple more places where Zope 2-style ``__implements__``
-  were being used to standardize on using ``classImplements``.
-
-- Fixed fallback implementations of ``providedBy`` and
-  ``implementedBy`` to always return a tuple.
-
-- Make sure challenge doesn't break if existing instances of the
-  PluginRegistry don't yet have ``IChallengeProtocolChooser`` as a
-  registered interface. (Would be nice to have some sort of
-  migration for the PluginRegistry between PAS releases)
-
-- Don't assume that just because zope.interface can be imported
-  that Five is present.
-
-
-PluggableAuthService 1.1b2 (2005-07-14)
----------------------------------------
-
-- Repaired a missing 'nocall:' in the Interfaces activation form.
-
-
-PluggableAuthService 1.1b1 (2005-07-06)
----------------------------------------
-
-- PAS-level id mangling is no more. All (optional) mangling is now
-  done on a per-plugin basis.
-
-- Interfaces used by PAS are now usable in both Zope 2.7 and 2.8
-  (Five compatible)
-
-
-PluggableAuthService 1.0.5 (2005-01-31)
----------------------------------------
-
-- Simplified detection of the product directory using 'package_home'.
-
-- Set a default value for the 'login' attribute of a PAS, to avoid
-  UnboundLocalError.
-
-PluggableAuthService 1.0.4 (2005-01-27)
----------------------------------------
-
-- Made 'Extensions' a package, to allow importing its scripts
-  as modules.
-
-- Declared new 'IPluggableAuthService' interface, describing additional
-  PAS-specific API.
-
-- Exposed PAS' 'resetCredentials' and 'updateCredentials' as public
-  methods.
-
-- Monkey-patch ZMI's logout to invoke PAS' 'resetCredentials', if
-  present.
-
-- CookieAuth plugin now encodes and decodes cookies in the same
-  format as CookieCrumbler to provide compatibility between
-  sites running PAS and CC.
-
-- Add a publicly callable "logout" method on the PluggableAuthService
-  instance that will call resetCredentials on all activated 
-  ICredentialsRest plugins, thus effecting a logout.
-
-- Enabled the usage of the CookieAuthHelper login screen functionality
-  without actually using the CookieAuthHelper to maintain the 
-  credentials store in its own auth cookie by ensuring that only
-  active updateCredentials plugins are informed about a successful
-  login so they can store the credentials.
-
-- Added a _getPAS method to the BasePlugin base class to be used
-  as the canonical way of getting at the PAS instance from within
-  plugins.
-
-- Group and user plugins can now specify their own title for a
-  principal entry (PAS will not compute one if they do).
-
-- PAS and/or plugins can now take advantage of caching using the
-  Zope ZCacheable framework with RAM Cache Managers. See
-  doc/caching.stx for the details.
-
-- Make 'getUserById' pass the 'login' to '_findUser', so that
-  the returned user object can answer 'getUserName' sanely.
-
-- Harden 'logout' against missing HTTP_REFERRER.
-
-- Avoid triggering "Emergency user cannot own" when adding a
-  CookieAuthHelper plugin as that user.
-
-- Detect and prevent recursive redirecting in the CookieAuthHelper
-  if the login_form cannot be reached by the Anonymous User.
-
-- Made logging when swallowing exceptions much less noisy (they
-  *don't* necessarily require attention).
-
-- Clarified interface of IAuthenticationPlugin, which should return
-  None rather than raising an exception if asked to authenticate an
-  unknown principal;  adjusted ZODBUserManager accordingly.
-
-- Don't log an error in zodb_user_plugin's authenticateCredentials
-  if we don't have a record for a particular username, just return None.
-
-- If an IAuthenticationPlugin returns None instead of a tuple
-  from authenticateCredentials, don't log a tuple-unpack error in PAS
-  itself.
-
-
-PluggableAuthService 1.0.3 (2004-10-16)
----------------------------------------
-
-- Implemented support for issuing challenges via IChallengePlugins.
-
-  - three challenge styles in particular:
-
-    - HTTP Basic Auth
-
-    - CookieCrumbler-like redirection
-
-    - Inline authentication form
-
-- Made unit tests pass when run with cAccessControl.
-
-- plugins/ZODBRoleManager.py: don't claim authority for 'Authenticated'
-  or 'Anonymous' roles, which are managed by PAS.
-
-- plugins/ZODBRoleManager.py: don't freak out if a previously assigned
-  principal goes away.
-
-- plugins/ZODBGroupManager.py: don't freek out if a previously assigned
-  principal goes away.
-
-- plugins/ZODBUserManager.py: plugin now uses AuthEncoding for its
-  password encryption so that we can more easily support migrating
-  existing UserFolders. Since PAS has been out for a while,
-  though, we still will authenticate against old credentials
-
-- Repaired arrow images in two-list ZMI views.
-
-- searchPrincipals will work for exact matches when a plugin supports
-  both 'enumerateUsers' and 'enumerateGroups'.
-
-- 'Authenticated' Role is now added dynamically by the
-  PluggableAuthService, not by any role manager
-
-- Added WARNING-level logs with tracebacks for all swallowed
-  plugin exceptions, so that you notice that there is something
-  wrong with the plugins.
-
-- All authenticateCredentials() returned a single None when they
-  could not authenticate, although all calls expected a tuple.
-
-- The user id in extract user now calls _verifyUser to get the ID
-  mangled by the enumeration plugin, instead of mangling it with the
-  authentication ID, thereby allowing the authentication and
-  enumeration plugins to be different plugins.
-
-
-PluggableAuthService 1.0.2 (2004-07-15)
----------------------------------------
-
-- ZODBRoleManager and ZODBGroupManager needed the "two_lists" view,
-  and associated images, which migrated to the PluginRegsitry product
-  when they split;  restored them.
-
-
-PluggableAuthService 1.0.1 (2004-05-18)
----------------------------------------
-
-- CookieAuth plugin didn't successfully set cookies (first, because
-  of a NameError, then, due to a glitch with long lines).
-
-- Missing ZPL in most modules.
-
-
-PluggableAuthService 1.0 (2004-04-29)
--------------------------------------
-
-- Initial release
-
